Down on the Farm: 8/25/2022

AAA:  Reno Aces strafed the Sacramento River Cats 13-4.

Jason Vosler DH/1B- 2 for 5, HR(14).  BA= .230.
Heliot Ramos CF- 2 for 5.  BA= .219.
Dixon Machado SS- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .281.
Tristan Beck RHP- 4 IP, 5 H, 3 BB, 4 K.  ERA= 5.64.
Yunior Marte RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K's.  ERA= 3.57.

Heliot Ramos is 6 for 17 over his last 4 games.   I hope the Giants find a way to keep Dixon Machado in the organization.  If they want to get younger and more athletic, he is one option.  Jason Krizan 1B/RHP and Jhonny Pereda C added solo HR's.  Also hope they keep Yunior around.  Love the name!

AA:  Akron Rubber Ducks downed the Richmond Flying Squirrels 5-2.

Tristan Peters RF- 2 for 4, SB(3).  BA= .235.
Brett Auerbach LF- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .212.
Casey Schmitt 3B- 2 for 4, 2B.  BA= .340.
Keaton Winn RHP- 6 IP, 8 H, 4 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA=  3.27.

Brett Auerbach is finishing the season strong with a .288/.373/.515 slash line for August.  Casey Schmitt is another guy whose season is reminiscent of Brandon Belt's 2010.

A+:  Tri-City Dust Devils edged out the Eugene Emeralds 5-4.

Carter Williams RF- 2 for 5, 2B.  BA= .243.
Luis Matos CF- 3 for 5, SB(8).  BA= .211.
Carson Seymour RHP- 4 IP, 2 H, 4 R, 2 BB, 8 K's.  ERA= 4.50.
Tanner Andrews RHP- 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 0.00.
Tyler Myrick RHP- 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K's.  ERA= 0.00.

Good to see Luis Matos finish the season strong.  Is Tanner Andrews a 2-way player now?

*************************************************************************************

A:  Modesto Nuts outscored the San Jose Giants 10-8.

Hayden Cantrelle DH- 1 for 2, 3 BB, 2 SB(10).  BA= .277.
Aeverson Arteaga SS- 1 for 4, 2B, BB.  BA= .261.
Anyesber Sivira 2B- 2 for 4.  BA= .282.
Seth Lonsway LHP- 5 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 10 K.  ERA= 3.54.

Matt Mikulski LHP gave up 9 runs in 2 IP at start of game.  Nice season for Lonsway but in a very conservative placement.  His BB/9 improved as the season progressed.

Wade Meckler CF- 2 for 5, 3B.

  1. Awesome Baggs article in The Athletic on Vaun Brown today.
    Incredible rags-to-riches story and how he actually was helped by the pandemic!
    The Giants squeezed him with a cheap signing bonus because he had no choices. Did he care? He commented “I’ll sign for a Pop Tart!”
    Slot value of $145,700 - Brown signed for $7,500.
